One-time Funding to Support Windows 11 Upgrades

The Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development has announced one-time funding to support Windows 11 upgrades for Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS) service delivery sites, support organizations, and e-Channel providers.

This funding is available to replace core computer equipment—such as laptops and desktops—that cannot be upgraded to Windows 11. Devices that meet Windows 11 system requirements are not eligible for replacement, but can be upgraded for free via Microsoft’s site. Peripheral equipment (e.g., monitors, docking stations, keyboards) may only be included if it is essential and cannot be reused.

To access this funding, programs must complete a short application survey developed by AlphaPlus. The survey opened on August 11, 2025, and organizations will have until EOD September 19th 2025, to submit their responses.
